Welcome, STLBlues.net readers!

Greetings, salutations and welcome to those of you who have found your way here from Dave Beardsley's STLBlues.net site. While you're looking around, please check out the archives and links sections (found on the sidebar) as well as the front page. And while you're at it, why not take a look at the weekly calendar of jazz events, too? I encourage you to bookmark the site and return often, as I've been adding new material at least four times a week.

I'd also like to use this post to publicly thank Dave Beardsley - not only for linking to this site, which certainly is much appreciated, but also for all his hard work in setting such a great example for other local music sites to follow, as well as for his advice and encouragement as I've been getting St. Louis Jazz Notes up and running. Thanks, Dave - you're the man!
